about

From "The Beggar Heart"...Kurt stretches out into Emerson, Lake, and Palmer territory.

lyrics

Illuminate Me
Words and Music by G.Hoskins


I lay down
beside
my religion,
On the bed
in the room
at the top of stairs.

Her skin is brown,
she pulls me down
with conviction…
I don’t mind
this kind
of prayer

Illuminate,
Illuminate me.

Somehow the sun
breaks through the window…
It betrays the room’s
unfinished state.
What is grotesque, what is gorgeous;
All this, and everything in between,
The light illuminates.

Illuminate,
Illuminate me.
